\n\t\u201cEuphoria<\/a>\u201d has added 18 new cast members to Season 3, including Trisha Paytas, Natasha Lyonne, Danielle Deadwyler and Eli Roth. The HBO high school drama created by Sam Levinson will return in spring 2026 with eight new episodes.<\/p>\n

\n\tAlso among the fresh faces joining the ensemble: Bella Podaras, Bill Bodner, Cailyn Rice, Colleen Camp, Gideon Adlon, Hemky Madera, Homer Gere, Jack Topalian, Jessica Blair Herman, Kwame Patterson, Madison Thompson, Matthew Willig, Rebecca Pidgeon and Sam Trammell.<\/p>\n
